In WebHelp, there was an addition to the URL that would allow for one of the search or index tabs to be selected. Is there anything in RoboHelp 15 or the generated HTML5 that will allow for the same functionality?

Question

We are trying open our HTML5 generated files to either the search, index or table of contents tab. Each selection is controlled by a menu from within our Java application. I have been unable to discover a URL attribute that can control this. In the non-HTML5, WebHelp, there was an addition to the URL that would allow for one of the tabs to be selected (ww.blank_pretend.com/...../index.htm#<cmd=fdx>>newwnd=false). The com portion allowed the functionality to open to search tab.

Is there anything in RoboHelp 15 or the generated HTML5 that will allow for the same functionality?

Not via the URL. (Unless you script something yourself.)You can set the default pane in the settings of the Layout. In the Layout Editor, Basic settings, you can choose the default pane.
